From the top of the tower, take in the history of Bordeaux at a glance...
A must see
Book your trip up the Pey-Berland Tower, the bell tower of Bordeaux Cathedral. Be sporty : climb the spiral staircase past the 4 bells- narrow and demanding, sensations guaranteed!... - to enjoy the view over Bordeaux.
Push on to the second terrace, 50 metres away, and reach Notre-Dame d'Aquitaine which, from the top of its 66 metres, watches over the city.
Take selfies from this balcony overlooking Bordeaux!

You can also decipher the layout of the capital of Gironde : successive ramparts, bell towers (including the St-Michel spire), river and quays, bridges, major shopping streets (such as rue Sainte-Catherine!), new districts and a railway station - Bordeaux's remarkable urban ensemble unfolds before your eyes. The city's origins date back to ancient times, but over the centuries it has evolved to combine heritage and modernity.
Make the most of an attractive city, where the quality of life and the beauty of the stonework are the order of the day!
